Same rules should apply to everybody. You should be able to decide some rules, even heuristics that can catch tracking across multiple sites and suggest user to disable it rather than pointing to entity and applying different rules to it than to everybody else.

No, they shouldnt. Everybody isnt the problem, its large scale privacy destroying services that are the problem.

Singling out facebook and google would absolutely be correct actions, and making it more obvious to users how to do that is a net good.

FYI the facebook container is an addon one has to download and enable, it's not built-in.
That makes perfect sense then.
You can set up containers for every domain you like. Facebook just comes as a predefined option because 90% of users are going to choose that domain anyway.
